...sympathize with him. Even when he chooses to be a tail gunner because “you’re the one they’re most likely to kill,” Day still reaches for every book, still infuses every song with all his soul. Half-despite himself, his will to live is indefatigable.And the book’s most beautiful passages, its most cutting scenes, are when Kennedy plumbs this reluctant desire for life, finding it inextricably tied to art, to stories and song, as in the scene where Day belts out “Jerusalem?...
...hold similar positions on most issues, moderates who intend to reach out to Republicans after they are elected - although, given Clinton's undeserved reputation as a partisan operative, that may be a tougher sell for her than for Obama. But this is not a struggle for the ideological soul of the party.

Obviously, there are people...
...nostalgically enjoyed 10 questions with former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright [Jan. 21]. She is right that the world has been seriously damaged by the current Administration and that the next President, whoever that poor soul may be, will have an extraordinary amount of cleaning up to do. I find it amazing that the Secretary is able to convey her feelings without rancor, hostility or bitterness. That's the mark of a true diplomat. I did not realize at the time how wonderful it was to have a prudent, wise, cautious, intelligent individual like her in office. The cowboys...
